Root of Trust & secure boot
Hardware-anchored trust, key strategy, verified boot chains and rejection of unauthorised software.
Embedded device security
Trust has to start before the first instruction executes.
ArivEmb integrates security into the boot chain, firmware, operating system, update mechanism and operational lifecycle - not as a final compliance patch.

Security framework
A defensible chain from hardware trust to field operations.
The correct security scope depends on threat model, silicon capability, product lifetime and regulatory exposure.
Device hardening
Service minimisation, privilege separation, secure interfaces, filesystem protection and attack-surface reduction.
Secure update mechanism
Authenticated and rollback-aware firmware or system updates with controlled release and recovery paths.
Device identity
Unique credentials, PKI/X.509 authentication, protected secrets and lifecycle-aware provisioning.
Secure communication
Authenticated channels, data integrity, secure remote diagnostics and auditable device management.
Vulnerability engineering
Static and dynamic analysis, SBOM/CVE workflows, threat review and prioritised remediation.
Engineering sequence
Security decisions tied to real product risks.
We start with the system and attack paths, then implement controls that can be verified.
- Assets, trust boundaries and threat scenarios
- Silicon security capability and boot-chain review
- Key, credential and provisioning architecture
- Hardening and secure interface implementation
- Update, recovery and rollback strategy
- Verification evidence and lifecycle process
CRA-oriented support
For products affected by the EU Cyber Resilience Act, engineering work can support the technical foundation for secure-by-design and vulnerability-handling obligations. Final legal classification and conformity decisions remain with the manufacturer and qualified legal/compliance advisers.
- Secure default configuration
- SBOM and vulnerability workflow
- Signed update mechanism
- Technical documentation inputs
